This might be where we all have to re-examine the Pokémon Go craze.

In a video that was posted on Friday morning, a crowd of people are shown losing their ever-loving minds once they notice a rare Pokémon appear in the middle of Central Park.

The Pokémon that appeared, according to the person who recorded the video, was a Vaporeon, which was apparently worthy of causing a scene that was absolutely insane.

It's not hard to figure out why a Vaporeon is a rare commodity. A Vaporean is one of the eight evolved forms of an Eevee. That makes all of the evolved forms valuable, because, well, math -- if you want all eight, that means you have to catch a lot of Eevees, and that's before getting into what you have to do to get the specific evolution you're aiming for.

Usually, getting a Vaporeon would look a little something like this:

But on this occasion, one just appeared out of the blue, and it was apparently worth people getting out of their cars to march in unison. What a time to be alive.
